I was a bit let down by this ending, honestly. It would have been a lot more interesting if Krell was just an asshole who didn’t see the clones as real people, showing that kind of thinking existed among the Jedi and setting the stage for why the clones were apparently all completely willing to turn on them the second Order 66 came down. But no, he’s just a Separatist mole, and we’re left with some more of the Republic being the heroes who can do no wrong and the Separatists being the villains who can do no right.

I see the thumbnail and I said, “Yup. That looks about right.” Rex, Fives, and the other clones really go through it in this arc. I knew that the clone against clone battle and as a result, Waxer’s death would be something that would get you so upset. Sad as well to lose Hardcase, though the blow is softened some in that he went out the way he wanted, with his boots on and his heart full of glorious purpose. It’s great narratively speaking how you already hate Krell for his prejudice against the clones as well as his overall unctuous and pugnacious manner. To then discover the full extent of his treachery, the well of hatred towards him deepens ten thousandfold. You express apologies for being so in favor of Krell dying. Let me just say that there is NO apology necessary. Every time you expressed hatred towards Krell and made your desire for to him to die be known, I’m once again sounding like Darth Sidious saying, “Your hatred, your anger. You want to kill him. That is what I want.” And the moment where you got excited saying, “Is he going to get eaten?” I had a small laugh and said, “Though I’m very much in favor as to where your head’s at, alas no, that doesn’t happen.” I will say that I agree that you don’t automatically jump to wanting to kill an unarmed man. And as you say, cold blooded murder is a very ugly business, but just occasionally, such as when Dogma put a blaster bolt right in Krell’s back, it is a real pleasure. It is so poetic that Tup is the one to subdue Krell and that Dogma was the one to kill him. One thing that’s not brought up is how the Jedi are likely to write off Krell by saying, “Well, he wasn’t a true Jedi if he fell to the Dark Side so easily.” and thus, they won’t give any consideration as to how much or how little truth lie within Krell’s protestations. Of course, we know that there are two things Krell was wrong about in his rants. First, his claim that a new power is rising; its victory is at hand. We know that the hour is later than Krell thinks as the new power has already risen. It rose quite some time ago, unfortunately the Jedi are too blind, too stupid, too weak to see it. The second thing we know Krell was wrong about was his belief that Count Dooku would have him as an apprentice because we remember the first and only reality of the Sith, “Two there shall be. No more, no less. One to embody power, the other to crave it.” I have that on a coffee mug by the way. In fairness, it is quite possible that Krell is unaware of the existence of Darth Sidious, or even if he is, he has likely dismissed Sidious as a smokescreen, a ghost story that the Jedi tell the younglings to spook them into eating their vegetables at mealtimes. These reactions to this arc were so superb, Jess. I would love to tell you that the worst is behind us now. Unfortunately, to say that would be the truth as well as a lie simultaneously. Again, my hat’s off to these most excellent reactions, Jess.

And the original script had Rex killing him, but then they decided that would be too out of character, and it should instead be the guy who is all the more outraged after he'd been trying to defend Krell the whole time.
